TWO SINNERS.

There was man, it was said one time.
" no went astray in his youthful prime.
IAN the brain keep cool and the heart keep
quiet,
men the blood is river that's running riotf
md boys will be boys the old folks saw,
ana mans the better who's had his day.
The sinner reformed, and the preacher told
vi the pfodigal son who came back to the
fold,
And Christian people threw open the door
With a warmer welcome than ever before.
Wealth and honor were his to command,
And spotless woman gave him her hand.
And the world strewed their pathway with
flowers a-bl0om,
Crying, God bless lady and God bless
groom!"
There was maiden went astrsy,
Ia the ( ,ldeD dawn of her life's young day;
She had more passion and heart than head
And she followed blindly where fond lsve
led,
And love unchecked is dangerous guide,
To wander at will by fair girls side.
The woman repented and turned from sin,
But no door opened 70 let her in;
The preacher prayed that she might be
forgiven,
But told her to look for mercy in heaven.
For this is the law of the carth, we know,
That the woman is scorned, while the man
may 60
a brave man welded her, after all,
But the world said, frowning, 1--WE shall
not CALL"

A Romance.

Here is a pretty little Washing
ton romance: One OF the Geor-
gia members of Congress has a
fashion Of carrying a revolver
whenever he leaves the House OF
night. His friends have ridiculed
him, and assured him that any
part of Washington was as safe
at midnight as MONDAY. But he
couldn't be laughed out of his
precautions, and now is glad that
he wasn't. He had been attend
ing a committee meeting at one Of
the downtown hotels the other
night. 1t was nearly l o'clock
when he started home. AS he
neared the corner of Fourteenth
street end the Thomas Circle, n
hurley negro stepped from the
shade OF the overhanging trees
and insolently demanded to know
the time. Robbery WIS undoubt-
eddy his motive, bat the Georgia
member was equal to the occasion.
He rammed both hands into his
pockets, and when he pulled them
out the left held a handsome gold
watch and the right an ugly look
ing revolver. Holding both with
in an inch Of the footpad's nose,
he coolsy said: 'Look for your
self, cir" The negro did look.
Then he politely touched his hat
and ran away as fast as his legs
could carry him. The Georgia
m>mbers may be depended on to
take care Of themselves in Wash
ington.

A Woman Halter.

A review is to be published in
Vienna and edited by Herr Gorse,
who proposes The task Of emanci-
pating man from his subsection to
chat doll woman whom idiots
idolize and fools bow down be-
fore as to a divinity"
Mr.. Gorse has evidently assum-
ed the most considerable job ever
undertaken by man. Referring
to this proposed effort,An exchange
says:
The boycott is a terrible weapon
when brought into play against
men and merchants and manufac-
lures. But when Mr.. Gorse turns
it against the sisterhood of wo-
man throughout the world, he will
find the operation like stabbing
an iron post with talIow candle.

The style OF the Savannah man
is very different from the air
adopted as "the thing by the At

asks You to take a drink. You
fall in with an Atlanta swell and
he waits until you ask him. II
you should refuse to accept the
Savannahian's invitation. he po-
litely requests you to come with
him and let him get enc; if you
refuse to give the Atlanta man
any he persistently hangs around
until you give him Is cents and
send him about his business.
These Gre quite striking charac-
teristic5 one must admit, and go
quite ways in settling the ques-
ton Of SUI eriority as to the rela-
tive attentions of the two cities.
a Savannah man takes you around
to his club and makes you feel at
home-no business is so pressing
as to keep him from showing you
every attention. An Atlanta man
asks you where you are staying
at, says he viii come around to

Why Governor Gordon Refused to
Honor Requisition.

ATLANTA, March 9.-Great i'm
position is often practiced on
Governors to obtain acquisitions
on other States for alleged fugi-
tives from justice. A case that
came up to-day from Coffee coun-
ty is a notable specimen. Indeed,
it is doubtful if there is a worse
case on record of the abuse of this
interstate courtesy.
Last fall there came to Coffee
county from Sumter county, 8. c.,
family consisting of Mr.. James
w. Budd and Miss Fannie Budd,
his daughter, a prepossessing
young lady. Shortly after there
followed them one DIR. j. J. L.
Miller, from Sumter county, S. G.,
who, under on alias, bung around
the girl endeavoring to get her to
go back to South Carolina with
him. 1t transpires that Miller is
a married man, and his purpose
Was anything but an honorable
one. Whatever encouragement
he may have received from the
girl, his scheme was thwarted by
The father. Miller made several
trips to Coffee county, but met
with failure each time. He then
sought the aid of the law, and Sc
cured from Governor Richardson,
of South Carolina, upon alfidavits
made charging Budd with obtain
ing money under false pretense,
a requisition upon the Governor
OF this State for him. In the
meantime he also had the young
lady arrested in Coffee on the
same charge. On the preliminary
hearing III the latter case Justice
Jim Denton, an honest, big-heart-
ed magistrate, who had learned
the facts, dismissed the case as
Zone of the fiimsiest he had over
heard Of" Budi was also arrest
ed on the 18th Of February, and
has since been held in the sheriff S
custody in Coffee, without an ex-
ecutive warrant and contrary to
law.
The sheriff of Sumter county,
South Carolina, Marion Sanders,
accompanied by a South Carolina
sheriff, has appeared before the
Governor with the requisition and
the affidavits and asked for the
proper warrant. With the papers
from Coffee county came COM
munication 20 the Governor from
Justice Denton laying before his
excellency all the facts in the case
and stigmatizing it a "disgraceful
state of affGirs." The scheme of
Miller, as Justice Denton states it,
IN getting the requisition for
Budd, the father, is to get him to
South Carolina on the idea that il
he can succeed in it the daughter
will go with him or follow him
there. 1t is unfortunate that the
Governor of South Carolina could
not have been put in possession
OF these facts when the applies
tion for requisition wss made.
1t is certainly fortunate that the
Governor OF Georgia has been
made acquainted with the true in
wardness of this whole transac-
Gordon declined to honor the
requisition, and Dr.. J. J. L. Mil
Ter, his attorney anl Sheriff San
ders, will return home completely
baffled.

The Editors Prayer

newspaper editors have is to COL
lect subscriptions from delinquent
subscribers. People who are
usually strictly honest in every
thing else do not hesitateto "beat"
newspaper out Of the small sum
Of a subscription. Many intend
to pay who do not do so, from al
most criminal carelessnes. We
do not wish any i'll, on general
principles, but, since quite NUM-
Der of our brother editors who are
suffering from this cause have
published "The Editors Prayer,
which follows below, we must join
the processi.a. and do likewise
and say "Them's our sentiments"
May he (the delinquent sabscri.
ber) never be permitted to kiss q
pretty woman.
May $40 night mares trot quar-
ter races over his stomach every
night.
May his coffee be sweeteneG
with flies and seasoned with eater
pillars
May his best friend run off with
his wife, and take the whooplng
cough.
May his boots leak, his gun
hang fire, and fishing line break.
May his cattle have worms, his
mules the blind staggers and hin
pigs destroy his garden.
May a troop of printers DEVILS
lean, lank and hungry-dog his
heels each day, and regiment OF
cats eternally cater-waul under his
window each night.
May his cows give soar milk
and churn rancid butter; and In
conclusion, good Lord may
his daughter marry q one-eyed,
hunchback editor, and he and his
business go to h-ades.
1t will be noticed that nothing
is said in the pray er regarding de-
linqaent lady subscribers for the
obvious reason that the ladies'
heaven bless emil seldom are de-
linquent in anything. If there hap
pens to be one on our list we pray
that she may never be able to
wear a sealskin sacque, and may
she have the stiff neck 80 that she
cannot turn her head to see what
other woman have on.

Journal.
A skeleton discovered near In

to be that of Laura Hill, an in
mate of the poorhouse, wandered
away and was LOST February 10,
1866. Laura Hill was from birth
peculiarly formed, her face resem-
bling that of a hog, her hands and
feet even partaking of the brute
characteristics. AS she grew old
her human instincts seemed sup
planted by those Of a brute Or
der and she gradually and almost
imperceptibly changed her mode
of life. She would hunt In the
woods, and on her hands and
knees grovel in the dirt. At last
her popularity became such that
she was regarded as unsafe to
have about home and was trans
ferred to the poorhouse. There
her human instincts seemed to be
completely obliterated and she be-
came torment to the inmates
and the keeper, Mr. Haviland 3.
